Three new elemental ultra minis, completed at my open studio today! Sold some art, sold some books, sold some prints and cards, had some great conversations, and met some neighbors who saw the bright yellow signs and dropped by to see what it was all about. 15 minutes left to go, then we go take those bright yellow signs down and say "done" til next year. Then we collapse. 😉 #siliconvalleyopenstudios #svos2017 #creativesandbox #creativesandboxway #doodle #doodles #doodleart #doodleartist #doodlesofinstagram #dailydoodle2017 #dailydoodle #dailycreative #dailyart #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #abstractart #originalart #originalartwork #pencil #watercolorground #watercolor #winsornewton #winsornewtonmarker #watercolormarkers #100dayproject #the100dayproject #tinycanvas #tinypainting #tinyart #miniart #minicanvas

Open Studio! As any artist who participates in #siliconvalleyopenstudios will tell you, it is a huge amount of work to make it happen. Setting up the space (in the middle of a kitchen renovation, no less!), making labels for all the art, hanging the show, posting signs all around the neighborhood early in the morning... As I look around my living room, I definitely have my favorite pieces. And then there are pieces I made long ago, that are no longer representative of my style. Or that are representative of experimental phases I was going through, and don't feel like mature pieces. All this is to say, several "finished" canvases are destined to be gessoed over after this open studio is done. Which ones? I'm not telling. But let's just say I won't need to purchase new canvas for awhile. This is one way to deal with excess inventory: paint over it! 😉 #originalart #openstudio #artistsoninstagram #artistsofinstagram #artistslife

It's warm outside today. I think that came out in this morning's painting—"cool" colors but a sunny vibe, no? That bright green "halo," perhaps? The combo of Spring and deep sky blue? Whatever it is, it makes me happy, especially when combined with that little curl at the top. This little series of ultra-minis is turning into a body of work! I've got 5 2"x3" paintings and 10 2"x2" paintings so far, and that's just the start. All of them, plus dozens of 6"x6", 5"x5", 4"x4", and other sizes all the way up to 20"x20" will be on exhibit and for sale at my upcoming open studio, May 13-14! It's part of #siliconvalleyopenstudios —Week 2 of that event, which takes place the first three weekends of May throughout Silicon Valley, when artists open our studios to the public. For all the details and maps, visit http://svos.org And if you're in or around Mountain View, plan to stop by May 13-14, 11am-5pm! Meet the artist and adopt some art to take home. 😊 #creativesandbox #creativesandboxway #doodle #doodles #doodleart #doodleartist #doodlesofinstagram #dailydoodle2017 #dailydoodle #dailycreative #dailyart #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #abstractart #originalart #originalartwork #pencil #watercolorground #watercolor #winsornewton #winsornewtonmarker #watercolormarkers #100dayproject #the100dayproject #tinycanvas #tinypainting #tinyart #miniart #minicanvas

I decided to do something different with today's Doodlecam, and that decision led me down a path of delight. Rather than just filling in the *interior* spaces defined by my knot doodle, I started by painting a "halo" around the *exterior*, defining the outside of the knot. *That* put a tingle in my toes. Actually, at first I was annoyed that the blue was much darker than I wanted at the top of the painting. It faded to much paler by the bottom, and rather than even it out, I realized I liked the gradient effect—much more exciting than the original thought, which was an even-toned halo all around the outside. Only by *doing* do we make these kinds of discoveries! As I write in The Creative Sandbox Way: You cannot THINK your way to creativity; you've got to DO something! You have to get your hands dirty! Literally or metaphorically. THAT is what will put the tingle in your toes. Go get creating! Come see this piece, and over 100 other original artworks, at my upcoming open studio, May 13-14, when all my art will be on exhibit to the public and for sale! It's part of the 31st annual #siliconvalleyopenstudios http://svos.org #creativesandbox #creativesandboxway #doodle #doodles #doodleart #doodleartist #doodlesofinstagram #dailydoodle2017 #dailydoodle #dailycreative #dailyart #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #abstractart #originalart #originalartwork #100dayproject #the100dayproject #tinycanvas #tinypainting #tinyart #miniart #minicanvas #poscapens #neocolorii #neocolor2 #neocolor

Something different today. I started with watercolor (Winsor & Newton watercolor markers, using paper as my palette, and a flat Derwent waterbrush), then added pencil *after* to outline and add detail. A totally different effect, but fun! This is #8 in my series of teeny-tiny 2" canvases. All will be on display at my upcoming open studio! You can see all the teeny-tinies, plus dozens of other paintings, on May 13-14, at my home in Mountain View, CA. Stay tuned! And be sure to get on my email list for an invite. :) #openstudio #svos #svos2017 #siliconvalleyopenstudios #creativesandbox #creativesandboxway #doodle #doodles #doodleart #doodleartist #doodlesofinstagram #dailydoodle2017 #dailydoodle #dailycreative #dailyart #artistsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #abstractart #originalart #originalartwork #blackandwhite #pigmamicron #the100dayproject #100dayproject
